Features: This is a collection of essays by Ma Yuan, who re-emerged after years of silence. Ma Yuan is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding Chinese novelists of the 20th century. His novels, such as Fiction, Old Death, and The Poetry of Death, immediately made a profound impact and were soon labeled as works of avant-garde fiction. In almost no time, Ma Yuan abruptly withdrew from this trend, shifting from his earlier avant-garde stance to a more conservative position, merging the novelist Ma Yuan with the philosopher Ma Yuan. This transformation is evident in this collection of essays.
